I WONDER how many other readers have done Christmas shopping at Riverside Retail Park only to receive a parking fine for £60 through the post.

I was there recently not knowing that there is a maximum stay of only three hours, which I went over by less than an hour.

On November 14, I received a fine for £60 which - due to the letter taking five days to reach me - gave me only 10 days to pay or the fine would go up to £100.

I would mention that we were genuinely on the retail park for the whole time, spent a considerable amount of money and had some dinner in McDonald's.

Never again will we shop on Riverside.
